of  the  growth,  product,  or  manufacture  of  the  United  States,  upon 
which  no  internal  tax  has  been  assessed  or  paid,  or  upon  which  such 
tax  has  been  paid  and  refunded  by  allowance  or  drawback,  there 
shall  be  levied,  collected,  and  paid  a  duty  equal  to  the  tax  imposed 
by  the  internal  revenue  laws  upon  such  articles,  except  articles 
manufactured  in  bonded  warehouses  and  exported  pursuant  to  law, 
which  shall  be  subject  to  the  same  rate  of  duty  as  if  originally  im- 
ported, but  proof  of  the  identity  of  such  articles  shall  be  made  under 
general  regulations  to  be  prescribed  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury. 

Sec.  315.  (a)  That  in  order  to  regulate  the  foreign  commerce  of  the 
United  States  and  to  put  into  force  and  effect  the  policy  of  the  Con- 
gress by  this  Act  intended,  whenever  the  President,  upon  investi- 
gation of  the  differences  in  costs  of  production  of  articles  wholly  or 
in  part  the  growth  or  product  of  the  United  States  and  of  like  or 
similar  articles  wholly  or  in  part  the  growth  or  product  of  competing 
foreign  countries,  shall  find  it  thereby  shown  that  the  duties  fixed  in 
this  Act  do  not  equalize  the  said  differences  in  costs  of  production 


94  [Pub.  318.) 

in  the  United  Stales  and  the  principal  competing  country  lie  shall, 
by  such  investigation,  ascertain  said  differences  and  determine  and 
proclaim  the  changes  in  classifications  or  increases  or  decreases  in 

any  rate  of  duty  provided  in  this  Act  shown  by  said  ascertained 
differences  in  such  costs  of  production  necessary  to  equalize  the  same. 
Thirty  days  after  the  date  of  such  proclamation  or  proclamations 
such  changes  in  classification  shall  take  effect,  and  such  increased  or 
decreased  duties  shall  be  levied,  collected,  and  paid  on  such  articles 
when  imported  from  any  foreign  country  into  the  United  States  or 
into  any  of  its  possessions  (except  the  Philippine  Islands,  the  Virgin 
Islands',  and  the  islands  of  Guam  and  Tutuila):  Provided,  That  the 
total  increase  or  decrease  of  such  rates  of  duty  shall  not  exceed  50 
per  centum  of  the  rates  specified  in  Title  I  of  this  Act,  or  in  any 
amendatory  Act. 

(b)  That  in  order  to  regulate  the  foreign  commerce  of  the  United 
States  and  to  put  into  force  and  effect  the  policy  of  the  Congress  by 
this  Act  intended,  whenever  the  President,  upon  investigation  of 
the  differences  in  costs  of  production  of  articles  provided  for  in 
Title  I  of  this  Act,  wholly  or  in  part  the  growth  or  product  of  the 
United  States  and  of  like  or  similar  articles  wholly  or  in  part  the 
growth  or  product  of  competing  foreign  countries,  shall  find  it  thereby 
shown  that  the  duties  prescribed  in  this  Act  do  not  equalize  said 
differences,  and  shall  further  find  it  thereby  shown  that  the  said 
differences  in  costs  of  production  in  the  United  States  and  the 
principal  competing  country  can  not  be  equalized  by  proceeding 
under  the  provisions  of  subdivision  (a)  of  this  section,  he  shall  make 
such  findings  public,  together  with  a  description  of  the  articles  to 
which  they  apply,  in  such  detail  as  may  be  necessary  for  the  guidance 
of  appraising  officers.  In  such  cases  and  upon  the  proclamation  by 
the  President  becoming  effective  the  ad  valorem  duty  or  duty  based 
in  whole  or  in  part  upon  the  value  of  the  imported  article  in  the 
country  of  exportation  shall  thereafter  be  based  upon  the  American 
selling  price,  as  defined  in  subdivision  (f)  of  section  402  of  this  Act, 
of  any  similar  competitive  article  manufactured  or  produced  in  the 
United  States  embraced  within  the  class  or  kind  of  imported  articles 
upon  which  the  President  has  made  a  proclamation  under  sub- 
division (b)  of  this  section. 

The  ad  valorem  rate  or  rates  of  duty  based  upon  such  American 
selling  price  shall  be  the  rate  found,  upon  said  investigation  by  the 
President,  to  be  shown  by  the  said  differences  in  costs  of  production 
necessary  to  equalize  such  differences,  but  no  such  rate  shall  be  de- 
creased more  than  50  per  centum  of  the  rate  specified  in  Title  I  of 
this  Act  upon  such  articles,  nor  shall  any  such  rate  be  increased. 
Such  rate  or  rates  of  duty  shall  become  effective  fifteen  days  after 
the  date  of  the  said  proclamation  of  the  President,  whereupon  the 
duties  so  estimated  and  provided  shall  be  levied,  collected,  and  paid 
on  such  articles  when  imported  from  any  foreign  country  into  the 
United  States  or  into  any  of  its  possessions  (except  the  Philippine 
Islands,  the  Virgin  Islands,  and  the  islands  of  Guam  and  Tutuila). 
If  there  is  any  imported  article  within  the  class  or  kind  of  articles, 
upon  which  the  President  has  made  public  a  finding,  for  which  there 
is  no  similar  competitive  article  manufactured  or  produced  in  the 
United  States,  the  value  of  such  imported  article  shall  be  determined 
under  the  provisions  of  paragraphs  (1),  (2),  and  (3)  of  subdivision  (a) 
of  section  402  of  this  Act. 


[Pub.  318.]  95 

(c)  That  in  ascertaining  the  differences  in  costs  of  production,  under 
the  provisions  of  subdivisions  (a)  and  (b)  of  this  section,  the  President, 
in  so  far  as  he  finds  it  practicable,  shall  take  into  consideration  (1)  the 
differences  in  conditions  in  production,  including  wages,  costs  of  mate- 
rial, and  other  items  in  costs  of  production  of  such  or  similar  articles 
in  the  United  States  and  in  competing  foreign  countries ;  (2)  the  differ- 
ences in  the  wholesale  selling  prices  of  domestic  and  foreign  articles  in 
the  principal  markets  of  the  United  States;  (3)  advantages  granted  to 
a  foreign  producer  by  a  foreign  government,  or  by  a  person,  partner- 
ship, corporation,  or  association  in  a  foreign  country;  and  (4)  any 
other  advantages  or  disadvantages  in  competition. 

Investigations  to  assist  the  President  in  ascertaining  differences  in 
costs  of  production  under  this  section  shall  be  made  by  the  United 
States  Tariff  Commission,  and  no  proclamation  shall  be  issued  under 
this  section  until  such  investigation  shall  have  been  made.  The 
commission  shall  give  reasonable  public  notice  of  its  hearings  and 
shall  give  reasonable  opportunity  to  parties  interested  to  be  present, 
to  produce  evidence,  and  to  be  heard.  The  commission  is  authorized 
to  adopt  such  reasonable  procedure,  rules,  and  regulations  as  it  may 
deem  necessary. 

The  President,  proceeding  as  hereinbefore  provided  for  in  proclaim- 
ing rates  of  duty,  shall,  when  he  determines  that  it  is  shown  that  the 
differences  in  costs  of  production  have  changed  or  no  longer  exist 
which  led  to  such  proclamation,  accordingly  as  so  shown,  modify  or 
terminate  the  same.  'Nothing  in  this  section  shall  be  construed  to 
authorize  a  transfer  of  an  article  from  the  dutiable  list  to  the  free  list 
or  from  the  free  list  to  the  dutiable  list,  nor  a  change  in  form  of  duty. 
Whenever  it  is  provided  in  any  paragraph  of  Title  I  of  this  Act,  that 
the  duty  or  duties  shall  not  exceed  a  specified  ad  valorem  rate  upon 
the  articles  provided  for  in  such  paragraph,  no  rate  determined  under 
the  provision  of  this  section  upon  such  articles  shall  exceed  the  maxi- 
mum ad  valorem  rate  so  specified. 

(d)  For  the  purposes  of  this  section  any  coal-tar  product  provided 
for  in  paragraphs  27  or  28  of  Title  I  of  this  Act  shall  be  considered 
similar  to  or  competitive  with  any  imported  coal-tar  product  which 
accomplishes  results  substantially  equal  to  those  accomplished  by  the 
domestic  product  when  used  in  substantially  the  same  manner. 

(e)  The  President  is  authorized  to  make  all  needful  rules  and  regu- 
lations for  carrying  out  the  provisions  of  this  section. 

(f)  The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  is  authorized  to  make  such  rules 
and  regulations  as  he  may  deem  necessary  for  the  entry  and  declara- 
tion of  imported  articles  of  the  class  or  kind  of  articles  upon  which  the 
President  has  made  a  proclamation  under  the  provisions  of  subdivi- 
sion (b)  of  this  section  and  for  the  form  of  invoice  required  at  time  of 
entry. 

Sec.  316.  (a)  That  unfair  methods  of  competition  and  unfair  acts 
in  the  importation  of  articles  into  the  United  States,  or  in  their  sale 
by  the  owner,  importer,  consignee,  or  agent  of  cither,  the  effect  or 
tendency  of  which  is  to  destroy  or  substantially  injure  an  industry, 
efficiently  and  economically  operated,  in  the  United  States,  or  to  pre- 
vent the  establishment  of  such  an  industry,  or  to  restrain  or  monop- 
olize trade  and  commerce  in  the  United  States,  are  hereby  declared 
unlawful,  and  when  found  by  the  President  to  exist  shail  be  dealt

with,   in   addition   to   any  other   provisions  of  law,  as  hereinafter 
provided. 

assist  the  President  in  making  any  decisions  under  this 
ion  the  United  States  Tariff  Commission  is  hereby  authorized  to 
inves  any  alleged  violation  hereof  on  complaint  under  oath  or 

upon  its  initiative. 

(e)  Thai  the  commission  shall  make  such  investigation  under  and 
in  accordance  with  such  rules  as  it  may  promulgate  and  give  such 
notice  and  afford  such  bearing,  and  when  deemed  proper  by  the 
commission  such  rehearing  with  opportunity  to  offer  evidence,  oral 
or  written,  as  it  may  deem  sufficient  for  a  full  presentation  of  the 
facte  involved  in  such  investigation;  that  the  testimony  in  every 
igation  shall  be  reduced  to  writing,  and  a  transcript 
thereof  with  the  findings  and  recommendation  of  the  commission 
shall  be  the  official  record  of  the  proceedings  and  findings  in  the  case, 
and  in  any  case  where  the  findings  in  such  investigation  show  a  viola- 
tion of  this  section,  a  copy  of  the  findings  shall  be  promptly  mailed 
or  delivered  to  the  importer  or  consignee  of  such  articles;  that  such 
findings,  if  supported  by  evidence,  shall  be  conclusive,  except  that  a 
rehearing  may  be  granted  by  the  commission,  and  except  that, 
within  such  time  after  said  findings  are  made  and  in  such  manner 
as  appeals  may  be  taken  from  decisions  of  the  United  States  Board  of 
General  Appraisers,  an  appeal  may  be  taken  from  said  findings 
upon  a  question  or  questions  of  law  only  to  the  United  States  Court  ' 
of  Customs  Appeals  by  the  importer  or  consignee  of  such  articles;  ! 
that  if  it  shall  be  shown  to  the  satisfaction  of  said  court  that  further 
evidence  should  be  taken,  and  that  there  were  reasonable  grounds 
for  the  failure  to  adduce  such  evidence  in  the  proceedings  before  the 
commission,  said  court  may  order  such  additional  evidence  to  be  taken 
before  the  commission  in  such  manner  and  upon  such  terms  and 
conditions  as  to  the  court  may  seem  proper;  that  the  commission  may 
modify  its  findings  as  to  the  facts  or  make  new  findings  by  reason  of 
additional  evidence,  which,  if  supported  by  the  evidence,  shall  be 
conclusive  as  to  the  facts  except  that  within  such  time  and  in  such 
manner  an  appeal  may  be  taken  as  aforesaid  upon  a  question  or 
questions  of  law  only;  that  the  judgment  of  said  court  shall  be  final, 
except  that  the  same  shall  be  subject  to  review  by  the  United  States 
Supreme  Court  upon  certiorari  applied  for  within  three  months 
after  such  judgment  of  the  United  States  Court  of  Customs  Appeals. 

(d)  That  the  final  findings  of  the  commission  shall  be  transmitted 
with  the  record  to  the  President. 

(e)  That  whenever  the  existence  of  any  such  unfair  method  or  act 
shall  be  established  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  President  he  shall 
determine  the  rate  of  additional  duty,  not  exceeding  50  nor  less  than 
10  per  centum  of  the  value  of  such  articles  as  defined  in  section  402 
of  Title  IV  of  this  Act,  which  will  offset  such  method  or  act,  and  which 
is  hereby  imposed  upon  articles  imported  in  violation  of  this  Act, 
or*,  in  what  he  shall  be  satisfied  and  find  are  extreme  cases  of  unfair 
methods  or  acts  as  aforesaid,  he  shall  direct  that  such  articles  as  he  shall 
deem  the  interests  of  the  United  States  shall  require,  imported  by  any 
person  violating  the  provisions  of  this  Act.  shall  be  excluded  from 
entry  into  the  United  States,  and  upon  information  of  such  action 
by  the  President,  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  shall,  through  the 


[Pub.  318.)  97 

proper  officers,  assess  such  additional  duties  or  refuse  such  entry; 
and  that  the  decision  of  the  President  shall  be  conclusive. 

(f)  That  whenever  the  President  has  reason  to  believe  that  any 
article  is  offered  or  sought  to  be  offered  for  entry  into  the  United 
States  in  violation  of  this  section  but  has  not  information  sufficient  to 
satisfy  him  thereof,  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  shall,  upon  his 
request  in  writing,  forbid  entry  thereof  until  such  investigation  as  the 
President  may  deem  necessary  shall  be  completed:  Provided,  That 
the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  may  permit  entry  under  bond  upon 
such  conditions  and  penalties  as  he  may  deem  adequate. 

(g)  That  any  additional  duty  or  any  refusal  of  entry  under  this 
section  shall  continue  in  effect  until  the  President  shall  find  and 
instruct  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  that  the  conditions  which  led 
to  the  assessment  of  such  additional  duty  or  refusal  of  entry  no 
longer  exist. 

Sec.  317.  (a)  That  the  President  when  he  finds  that  the  public 
interest  will  be  served  thereby  shall  by  proclamation  specify  and 
declare  new  or  additional  duties  as  hereinafter  provided  upon  articles 
wholly  or  in  part  the  growth  or  product  of  any  foreign  country  when- 
ever he  shall  find  as  a  fact  that  such  country — ■ 

Imposes,  directly  or  indirectly,  upon  the  disposition  in  or  trans- 
portation in  transit  through  or  reexportation  from  such  country  of 
any  article  wholly  or  in  part  the  growth  or  product  of  the  United 
States  any  unreasonable  charge,  exaction,  regulation,  or  limitation 
which  is  not  equally  enforced  upon  the  like  articles  of  every  foreign 
country; 

Discriminates  in  fact  against  the  commerce  of  the  United  States, 
directly  or  indirectly,  by  law  or  administrative  regulation  or  practice, 
by  or  in  respect  to  any  customs,  tonnage,  or  port  duty,  fee,  charge, 
exaction,  classification,  regulation,  condition,  restriction,  or  prohibi- 
tion, in  such  manner  as  to  place  the  commerce  of  the  United  States  at 
a  disadvantage  compared  with  the  commerce  of  any  foreign  country. 

(b)  If  at  any  time  the  President  shall  find  it  to  be  a  fact  that  any 
foreign  country  has  not  only  discriminated  against  the  commerce  of 
the  United  States,  as  aforesaid,  but  has,  after  the  issuance  of  a  procla- 
mation as  authorized  in  subdivision  (a)  of  this  section,  maintained  or 
increased  its  said  discriminations  against  the  commerce  of  the  United 
States,  the  President  is  hereby  authorized,  if  he  deems  it  consistent 
with  the  interests  of  the  United  States,  to  issue  a  further  proclamation 
directing  that  such  articles  of  said  country  as  he  shall  deem  the  public 
interests  may  require  shall  be  excluded  from  importation  into  the 
United  States. 

(c)  That  any  proclamation  issued  by  the  President  under  the 
authority  of  this  section  shall,  if  he  deems  it  consistent  with  the 
interests  of  the  United  States,  extend  to  the  whole  of  any  foreign 
country  or  may  be  confined  to  any  subdivision  or  subdivisions  thereof; 
and  the  President  shall,  whenever  he  deems  the  public  interests 
require,  suspend,  revoke,  supplement,  or  amend  any  such  procla- 
mation. 

(d)  Whenever  the  President  shall  find  as  a  fact  that  any  foreign 
country  places  any  burdens  upon  the  commerce  of  the  United  States 
by  any  of  the  unequal  impositions  or  discriminations  aforesaid,  he 
shall,  when  he  finds  that  the  public  interest  will  be  served  thereby, 
by  proclamation  specify  and  declare  such  new  or  additional  rate  or 
rates  of  duty  as  he  shall  determine  will  offset  such  burdens,  not  to 


98  [Pro.  318.] 

exceed  50  per  centum  ad  valorem  or  its  equivalent,  and  on  and  after 
thirty  days  after  the  date  <>f  such  proclamation  there  shall  be  levied, 
collected,  and  paid  upon  the  articles  enumerated  in  such  proclama- 
tion when  imported  into  the  United  Slates  from  such  foreign  coun- 
try such  new  or  additional  rale  or  rates  of  duty;  or,. in  case  of  arti- 
cles declared  subject  to  exclusion  from  importation  into  the  United 
States  under  the  provisions  of  subdivision  (b)  of  this  section,  such 
articles  shall  be  excluded  from  importation. 

(e)  Whenever  the  President  shall  find  as  a  fact  that  any  foreign 
country  imposes  any  unequal  imposition  or  discrimination  as  afore- 
said upon  the  commerce  of  the  United  States,  or  that  any  benefits 
accrue  or  are  likely  to  accrue  to  any  industry  in  any  foreign  country 
by  reason  of  any  such  imposition  or  discrimination  imposed  by  any 
foreign  country  other  than  the  foreign  country  in  which  such  industry 
is  located,  and  whenever  the  President  shall  determine  that  any  new 
or  additional  rate  or  rates  of  duty  or  any  prohibition  hereinbefore 
provided  for  do  not  effectively  remove  such  imposition  or  discrimi- 
nation and  that  any  benefits  from  any  such  imposition  or  discrimi- 
nation accrue  or  are  likely  to  accrue  to  any  industry  in  any  foreign 
country,  lie  shall,  when  he  finds  that  the  public  interest  will  be  served 
thereby,  by  proclamation  specify  and  declare  such  new  or  additional 
rate  or  rates  of  duty  upon  the  articles  wholly  or  in  part  the  growth 
or  product  of  any  sucli  industry  as  he  shall  determine  will  offset 
such  benefits,  not  to  exceed  50  per  centum  ad  valorem  or  its  equiva- 
lent, upon  importation  from  any  foreign  country  into  the  United 
States  of  such  articles  and  on  and  after  thirty  days  after  the  date 
of  any  such  proclamation  such  new  or  additional  rate  or  rates  of 
duty  so  specified  and  declared  in  such  proclamation  shall  be  levied, 
collected,  and  paid  upon  such  articles. 

(f)  All  articles  imported  contrary  to  the  provisions  of  this  section 
shall  be  forfeited  to  the  United  States  and  shall  be  liable  to  be  seized, 
prosecuted,  and  condemned  in  like  manner  and  under  the  same 
regulations,  restrictions,  and  provisions  as  may  from  time  to  time 
be  established  for  the  recovery,  collection,  distribution,  and  remission 
of  forfeitures  to  the  United  States  by  the  several  revenue  laws. 
Whenever  the  provisions  of  this  Act  shall  be  applicable  to  importa- 
tions into  the  United  States  of  articles  wholly  or  in  part  the  growth 
or  product  of  any  foreign  country,  they  shall  be  applicable  thereto 
whether  such  articles  are  imported  directly  or  indirectly. 

(g)  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  United  States  Tariff  Commission  to 
ascertain  and  at  all  times  to  be  informed  whether  any  of  the  dis- 

sinations  against  the  commerce  of  the  United  States  enumerated 
in  subdivisions  (a),  (b),  and  (e)  of  this  section  are  practiced  by  any 
country;  and  if  and  when  such  discriminatory  acts  are  disclosed,  it 
shall  be  the  duty  of  the  commission  to  bring  the  matter  to  the  atten- 
tion of  the  President,  together  with  recommendations. 

(h)  The  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  with  the  approval  of  the  Presi- 
dent shall  make  such  rules  and  regulations  as  are  necessary  for  the 
execution   of  such   proclamations   as   the  President  may  issue  in 

sordance  with  the  provisions  of  this  section. 

(i)  That  when  used  in  this  section  the  term  "foreign  country" 
shall  mean  any  empire,  country,  dominion,  colony,  or  protectorate, 
or  any  subdivision  or  subdivisions  thereof  (other  than  the  United 
States  and  its  possessions),  within  which  separate  tariff  rates  or  sep- 
arate regulations  of  commerce  are  enforced.

Sec.  3 IS.  (a)  That  in  order  that  the  President  and  the  Congress 
may  secure  information  and  assistance,  it  shall  be  the  duty  of  the 
United  States  Tariff  Commission,  in  addition  to  the  duties  now 
imposed  upon  it  by  law,  to — 

(1)  Ascertain  conversion  costs  and  costs  of  production  in  the 
principal  growing,  producing,  or  manufacturing  centers  of  the  United 
States  of  articles  of  the  United  States,  whenever  in  the  opinion  of 
the  commission  it  is  practicable; 

(2)  Ascertain  conversion  costs  and  costs  of  production  in  the 
principal  growing,  producing,  or  manufacturing  centers  of  foreign 
countries  of  articles  imported  into  the  United  States,  whenever  in 
the  opinion  of  the  commission  such  conversion  costs  or  costs  of 
production  are  necessary  for  comparison  with  conversion  costs  or 
costs  of  production  in  the  United  States  and  can  be  reasonably 
ascertained; 

(3)  Select  and  describe  articles  which  are  representative  of  the 
classes  or  kinds  of  articles  imported  into  the  United  States  and 
which  are  similar  to  or  comparable  with  articles  of  the  United  States; 
select  and  describe  articles  of  the  United  States  similar  to  or  com- 
parable with  such  imported  articles;  and  obtain  and  file  samples  of 
articles  so  selected,  whenever  the  commission  deems  it  advisable; 

(4)  Ascertain  import  costs  of  such  representative  articles  so 
selected; 

(5)  Ascertain  the  grower's,  producer's,  or  manufacturer's  selling

and 

(6)  Ascertain  all  other  facts  which  will  show  the  differences  in  or 
which  affect  competition  between  articles  of  the  United  States  and

equipments  and  repairs  made  within  the  year  immediately  preceding 
such  application  have  been  duly  accounted  for  under  the  provisions 
of  this  and  the  preceding  sections,  and  the  duties  accruing  thereon 
duly  paid;  and  if  such  owner  or  master  shall  refuse  to  take  such  oath,

entry; 

Such  person  makes  a  verified  declaration  in  writing  that  he  is 
unable  to  produce  such  invoice  and  (A)  files  therewith  a  seller's  or 
shipper's  invoice,  or  (B)  if  he  is  not  in  possession  of  a  seller's  or

the  collector,  in  a  sum  equal  to  not  less  than  one  and  one-half  times 
the  invoice  value  of  the  merchandise,  to  produce  such  bill  of  lading, 
to  relieve  the  collector  of  all  liability,   to  indemnify  the  collector 

inst  loss,  to  defend  every  action  brought  upon  a  claim  for  loss  or 

-age,  by  reason  of  such  release  from  customs  custody  or  a  failure 

to  produce  such  bill  of  lading  and  to  entitle  any  person  injured  by 

son  of  such  release  from  customs  custody  to  sue  on  such  bond  in 

his  own  name,  without  making  the  collector  a  party  thereto.     Any 

person  so  injured  by  such  release  may  sue  on  such  bond  to  recover 

Lamages  so  sustained  by  him.

collected,  and  paid,  in  addition  to  the  duties  imposed  by  law  on  such 
merchandise,  an  additional  duty  of  1  per  centum  of  the  total  final 
appraised  value  thereof  for  each  1  per  centum  that  such  final  appraised 


[Pub.  318.)  117 

value  exceeds  the  value  declared  in  the  entry.  Such  additional  duty 
shall  apply  only  to  the  particular  article  or  articles  in  each  invoice 
that  are  so  advanced  in  value  upon  final  appraisement  and  shall  not 
be  imposed  upon  any  article  upon  which  the  amount  of  duty  imposed 
by  law  on  account  of  the  final  appraised  value  does  not  exceed  the 
amount  of  duty  that  would  be  imposed  if  the  final  appraised  value  did 
not  exceed  the  entered  value,  and  shall  be  limited  to  75  per  centum  of 
the  final  appraised  value  of  such  article  or  articles.  Such  additional 
duties  shall  not  be  construed  to  be  penal  and  shall  not  be  remitted  nor 
payment  thereof  in  any  way  avoided,  except  in  the  case  of  a  manifest 
clerical  error,  upon  the  order  of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  or  in 
any  case  upon  the  finding  of  the  Board  of  General  Appraisers,  upon  a 
petition  filed  and  supported  by  satisfactory  evidence  under  such  rules 
as  the  board  may  prescribe,  that  the  entry  of  the  merchandise  at  a 
less  value  than  that  returned  upon  final  appraisement  was  without 
any  intention  to  defraud  the  revenue  of  the  United  States  or  to  con- 
ceal or  misrepresent  the  facts  of  the  case  or  to  deceive  the  appraiser  as 
to  the  value  of  the  merchandise.  If  the  appraised  value  oi  any  mer- 
chandise exceeds  the  value  declared  in  the  entry  by  more  than  100 
per  centum,  such  entry  shall  be  presumptively  fraudulent,  and  the 
collector  shall  seize  the  whole  case  or  package  containing  such  mer- 
chandise and  proceed  as  in  case  of  forfeiture  for  violation  of  the  cus- 
toms laws;  and  in  any  legal  proceeding  other  than  a  criminal  prosecu- 
tion that  may  result  from  such  seizure,  the  undervaluation  as  shown 
by  the  appraisal  shall  be  presumptive  evidence  of  fraud,  and  the 
burden  of  proof  shall  be  on  the  claimant  to  rebut  the  same,  and  for- 
feiture shall  be  adjudged  unless  he  rebuts  such  presumption  of  fraud 
by  sufficient  evidence. 

Upon  the  making  of  such  order  or  finding,  the  additional  duties 
shall  be  remitted  or  refunded,  wholly  or  in  part,  and  the  entry  shall 
be  liquidated  or  reliquidated  accordingly.  Such  additional  duties 
shall  not  be  refunded  in  case  of  exportation  of  the  merchandise,  nor 
shall  they  be  subject  to  the  benefit  of  drawback.  All  additional 
duties,  penalties,  or  forfeitures  applicable  to  merchandise  entered  in 
connection  with  a  certified  invoice  shall  be  alike  applicable  to  mer- 
chandise entered  in  connection  with  a  seller's  or  shipper's  invoice  or 
statement  in  the  form  of  an  invoice.  Duties  shall  not,  however,  be 
assessed  upon  an  amount  less  than  the  entered  value,  except  in  a  case 
where  the  importer  certifies  at  the  time  of  entry  that  the  entered 
value  is  higher  than  the  value  as  defined  in  this  Act,  and  that  the 
goods  are  so  entered  in  order  to  meet  advances  by  the  appraiser  in 
similar  cases  then  pending  on  appeal  for  reappraisement  or  re-reap- 
praisement,  and  the  importer's  contention  in  said  pending  cases  shall 
subsequently  be  sustained,  wholly  or  in  part,  by  a  final  decision  on 
reappraisement  or  re-reappraisement,  and  it  shall  appear  that  the 
action  of  the  importer  on  entry  was  so  taken  in  good  faith,  after  due 
diligence  and  inquiry  on  his  part,  and  the  collector  shall  liquidate  the 
entry  in  accordance  with  the  final  appraisement. 

Sec.  490.  Incomplete  entry. — Whenever  entry  of  any  imported 
merchandise  is  not  made  within  the  time  provided  by  law  or  the

estimated  duties,  or  whenever,  in  the  opinion  of  the  collector,  entry

shall  be  appraised  by  the  appraiser  of  merchandise  and  sold  by  the 
collector  at  public  auction  as  abandoned  to  the  Government,  under 
such   regulations  as  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  shall  prescribe.

in  the  Treasury  of  the  United  States,  if  claim  therefor  shall  not  be 
filed  with  the  collector  within  ten  days  from  the  date  of  sale,  and

in  which  the  merchandise  was  imported  from  all  claims  of  the  owner 
thereof,  who  shall,  nevertheless,  on  due  proof  of  his  interest,  be 
entitled  to  receive  from  the  Treasury  the  amount  of  any  surplus  of 
the  proceeds  of  sale.

ment may  be  considered.  Copies  of  official  documents,  when  cer- 
tified by  an  official  duly  authorized  by  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,

eral appraisers,  who  shall  consider  the  case  upon  the  samples  of  the 
merchandise,  if  there  be  any,  and  the  record  made  before  the  general

cision, to  be  forwarded  to  the  collector,  setting  forth  the  facts  upon

all  parties  unless  an  appeal  shall  be  taken  by  either  party  to  the 
Court  of  Customs  Appeals  upon  a  question  or  questions  of  law  only 
within  the  time  and  in  the  manner  provided  by  section  198  of  an

duty  assessed  upon  the  merchandise  is  not  correct,  he  shall  notify 
the  collectors  as  to  the  proper  classification  and  rate  of  duty  and  shall
